Groundbreaking improvised science-based comedy show which, alongside a cast of human improvisers also features an AI chatbot A.L.Ex - a humanoid robot powered by advanced AI. Audience members are invited to co-create a new story by voting on plot developments. The AI responds to live performance, generating lines, plot twists, and even deepfake visual elements involving consenting audience members. Performers receive surprise prompts through augmented reality glasses, adding an extra layer of unpredictability to the experience.
The show is directed by Dr Piotr Mirowski, a leading AI researcher and co-founder of Improbotics, who also appears in the cast. The company includes scientists, actors, and digital media specialists from the UK, Belgium, Sweden, and Canada.
Sapphire McIntosh joined the cast in 2025 for their Edinburgh Festival show at the Gilded Balloon Patter House.
